60 of 85 · most liked firstJack Nicholson's favourite from his own movies, Michael Antonioni's 1975 film The Passenger is an existential masterpiece. A journalist switches identities with an arms dealer in this astonishing film; the stunning penultimate shot is seven minutes long. 5 out of 5 film-authority.com/2026/09/03/t...
neutral · AI labelView post →THE PASSENGER (1975) was one of JACK NICHOLSON’s favourite of his own films. So much so he acquired the rights to the film from MGM in compensation for a film project that fell through, and was the principal figure behind the film getting a DVD release. #MichelangeloAntonioni

neutral · AI labelView post →If you enjoyed Emeric Pressburger's THE GLASS PEARLS, Sally Carson's CROKED CROSS or Anna Seghers' TRANSIT, chances are you'll like THE PASSENGER. It would make a great film, very much in the vein of classic Hitchcock thrillers such as THE LADY VANISHES, NOTORIOUS & THE 39 STEPS! #BookSky #FilmSky

Nicholson stars as a corrupt guard on Texas/Mexican border, who decides to try & go straight when he discovers a racket selling immigrant’s babies

Blumhouse tier exploding ghosts slop. Has a few decent scenes. Spoilers in my excessive thread for a shit movie no one will remember

positive · AI labelView post →The Passenger (2023) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ evil moustache man tries to take away twink rights. this movie is gritty. it's eerie, unsettling, tense, and has just the right amount of old-school filming to sell it as a sort of backwoods cut. benson is also lowkey #relatable but you didn't hear that from me.

I watched the whole thing thinking “Okay, it’s getting to the part where everything gets explained and then we get to go OOOOHHHH it all makes sense now!” But, no. It just ENDED with all these wide open hanging plot holes. Sigh.

unlabelledView post →Loving "Blow Up" and liking "The Passenger" a few weeks back, I watched "Zabriskie Point". Oh, my God. At least the annoying brat got shot. Words fail me in articulating how much I disliked this film. An absolute waste of Alfio Contini's cinematography.
unlabelledView post →#2026inanimation I was relieved that the Passenger from Ganora had stock explosion effects so I knew that it was poorly made, but not AI generated. The rest of the movie is a collection of IP theft, nonsensical plotting and inconsistent characters. Characters are annoying and mean to one another,
unlabelledView post →I watched the 2023 movie 'The Passenger'. Has anyone else watched it and felt incredibly sad for Benson (played by Kyle Gallner)? Like, they alluded to this poor kid being molested. I know he did terrible things. But I feel like... He and Randy could have had something beautiful. Friendship or more
unlabelledView post →‘Blow-Up’ and ‘The Passenger’ are more accessible, the former is my favourite film. Out of the trilogy, ‘La Notte’ is the easiest viewing. The ending of ‘L’Eclisse’ completely baffled me the first time I watched it, it’s one of the best endings of any film.
